Mason Robinson of Rutgers impressed today, and came to Jets camp with a stern warning from Scarlet Knights coaches.

"I like him," Ryan said. "The coaches at Rutgers said nobody at Rutgers wanted to fight this guy, and I thought 'Wow, that's pretty good for a little corner. Now, we'll have someone to fight him but obviously that's impressive."

"He caught a lot of balls out there," Ryan said of Rogers. "Slot receiver, saw him returning a couple of punts, he did a good job in the special teams drills as everybody watched him. Breaking down, form tackling was good.

Antavious Wilson, a rookie wide receiver out of Marshall, caught the ire of position coach Sanjay Lal when he dropped an open pass from Geno Smith during 7-on-7.

Rex Ryan talks about mini-campOn the first day of football mini-camp NY Jets head coach, Rex Ryan, says he likes what he sees but also states they have a lot to do.

Ben D'Aguilar, a rookie linebacker out of McMaster (Canada) University also got tuned up by Ryan for a coverage mistake during 7-on-7 drills.

Again, it's Day One, so stuff like this happens.

Some other thoughts:

• Seventh round pick Tommy Bohanon, the fullback out of Wake Forest, is as good a receiver as advertised. During one 7-on-7 play he made an impressive one-handed grab on a check down play while being smothered by a linebacker in coverage.

If he can provide that level of comfort for a quarterback as a tight end or fullback, there may be a spot for him in this offense. Remember, Marty Mornhinweg once coached a team where Cory Schlesinger, a fullback with almost the exact same height and weight as Bohanon, had 60 catches for 466 yards in one season.

• Some nice catches by both UDFA tight ends today. Mike Shanahan (Pittsburgh) and Chris Pantale (Boston College) both helped Geno Smith out in the receiving game. Pantale, especially, with a grab in traffic downfield.

• Chad Spann, a second-year running back out of Northern Illinois was everywhere at practice, both as a kick returner and in the backfield.

• As for the new offensive lineman: Oday Aboushi played tackle for the most part, while Brian Winters played left guard and William Campbell played on the right side. Campbell said the coaching staff already has him watching tape of Brandon Moore, another former defensive lineman who converted to guard.
